Hey, apologies I haven't logged in, in a long time! I'll do an update post over the next few days, been meaning to for months. Cheers,

Looks great @Rossybop, once you get it cut it's gonna look fresh!!

First clean was the day after the op in the clinic. But really that process starts at home yeah. Lotion and shampoo application seems fairly similar in most clinics. Some advise on sprays alongside etc. I think that's when the aftercare seemed good with regular photos/videos to see how scabs are forming and falling off. I wasn't being aggressive enough in my washes as I was just afraid of hair coming out! But Ozen (Dr.Bicers coordinator) was sure to advise and make sure I then did things differently.

Thanks pal, yea micro motor. Yes pretty much time I think is the main reason. Most clinics I spoke with seem to assume this is the preferred option unless requested.

It'll kick on shortly I'm sure. Your last pictures look good too. It won't be long! Will keep an eye out for the update.

Cheers @GaryJ. Hope it goes well for you. I had a video call with Dr.Bicer and her assistant Ozen yesterday, just a quick catch up. They will make you feel very welcome. Let me know if you need any info / advice.

How are you getting on @Rossybop?

If you are tight with a budget can you wait a while longer to get a clinic that will give you a better chance at a good result? One that preferably does 1 or very few patients per day. There are plenty of mills that will give you a good price / package but you will struggle to get many people who can provide genuine patient review. Honestly my advice would be just make sure you have researched wherever you decide on. If you can get yourself into a position to save bit more or get a bigger budget you will be in a far better place.

Great news @Dr. Ozlem Bicer Clinic

Thanks @Melvin-Moderator, super happy with the results.

Thanks mate, appreciate it

Hi, no I didn't, I was open with the clinic at the time I would be happy to share my story. We did a video in the clinic also, I'm sure they will share that when the time is right. At first I wasn't sure about showing my face but I've never hid the fact I've had a transplant and genuinely just happy to help people in that stage of indecision, I think that is the hardest part.

Hi, I wanted to share an update, it's been 8 months since my HT. Unsure if I will get any further growth but it seems to have continued up to now, maybe some thickening still to come. But if this was the end result I am absolutely delighted, very happy. Always happy to share any information I can or answer any questions. Some images below, I haven'y used any product at all on it for styling since the HT, I will probably use some in the coming weeks. Fresh from a haircut here so the donor area will be hard to judge, but it looks clean and in solid shape to me. Cheers,

Hi @JohnAC71, going to get an update up tomorrow and hopefully a video too if I can. Been waiting on some hair clippers to get it cut!

Great write up! Best of luck with it. I had a HT with Dr.Bicer almost 6 months ago and all is going great so far. Keep updating please, looking forward to watching the progress!

Hi guys, quick update. It's been about 5 & 1/2 months since surgery. I'm really happy with he results, all going well so far I think.

Hi, no I didn't go to Eugenix I went to Dr. Bicer. I just meant in general, yours looks pretty much right on track..it's nearly there!

@MNIK I'm about a month ahead of you and I know exactly what you are feeling, it will come! Stay positive! And enjoy the moment you realise its happening!

€1.3 per graft, that was August so might have changed. I stayed at the Sheraton hotel whick is literally across the road so it was very convenient.

Brilliant! I had 3200 grafts. How many are you expecting to have?

Great stuff @candleshades, best of luck with it! Any dates booked yet? Let me know if you need any help I was there around 4 months ago.

Looks really good @Bailey99 , I think you're going to have great results. Looks like a super clean job! Hope it goes well for you!

I don't think there is a 'best' as such, there a lot of highly recommended clinics from actual patients on here. I personally was with Dr. Bicer so can recomend her for sure. Really happy with my results so far. My opinion is make sure you do your research, you seem keen to get a quick procedure but it's a huge commitment and one you dont want to just rush and regret in 6 - 12 months. I get that it makes sense doing it close to home now and I'm sure there are some good local options, just make sure you are not rushing in. I think you should wait personally.

Ah yes what a result! Congratulations @Kaya it looks fantastic!

Looks great, congratulations!!
